Despite what your banker may say, Haute Couture pieces, iconic bags, and designer dresses are in high demand at auctions. You no longer have to feel guilty about buying these collector's items or vintage luxury articles from the most famous fashion houses because they have become a real investment for an international clientele. Also, nowadays, second-hand luxury items interst the heritage departments of major luxury fashion houses as well as museums looking to invest in the fashion industry.
We regularly organise auctions dedicated to these fascinating pieces.
It is a highly dynamic market: things move fast, and prices can quickly soar.
Are your wardrobes filled with Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior, Saint Laurent, Gucci, Comme des Garçons, Alaïa or Hermès? (Lucky you…) Whether you have built a collection of luxury fashion or simply own a few designer bags and accessories, it is worth taking a closer look at their value.
Let’s assess them together — you might be surprised.
And because jewellery is always the finishing touch to an outfit, we also specialise in Haute Couture jewellery by designers such as Baretti, Gripoix, Goossens, Chanel, Balenciaga, Dior, Lanvin and Hervé Van der Straeten.
Trust us, fashion is worth it!
We will assess the value of your pieces together.
